TREASURE
HUNT ENDS
IN FAILURE
Wealth Adventurers Disappointed.
TWO-YEAR SEARCH
New York
After two long summers of ex- haustive search, aided by the most modern diving equipment yet de- vised, the Salvor expedition which sought to recover $5,000,000 in gold and the Crown Jewels of Mexico, from the sunken Ward liner Merida, has returned empty handed.
Captain Harry Bowdoin and hila crew, many of them wealthy adven- turers seeking excitement, combed the wrecked hull which les in 210 feet of water off the Virginia Capes for eight months and found exactly nothing.
The huge strong box in which was thought to rest the $5,000,000 and the safe in which the treasure hunters had hoped to find the long lost Jewels of the late Emperor Mexico, were found to hold nothing. but a few keys and worthless papers.
After the Salvor's”, expert divers had cut through the sunken vessel's steel compartments and raised the safe, they found it was unlocked. Captain Bowdoin himself a salvag ing authority of long standing, ex-| pressed the opinion that someone, must have rifled the safe while the Merida, its hull agape after being rammed by the steamship, Admiral Farragut, was sinking in a beavy fog on May 12, 1911.
